Baku. Agshin Rafigoglu - APA-Economics. During the first three quarters of 2014, BP as operator of the ACG field, continued to deliver associated gas from the DWG platform via the 28” gas subsea pipeline directly to the Sangachal terminal and from there into Azerigas’ national grid system for domestic use.
BP-Azerbaijan told APA-Economics that gas from the three Azeri platforms - CA, WA and EA – continued to be sent via in-field subsea gas pipelines to the compression and water injection platform on CA. From CA it was partly re-injected to maintain pressure in the reservoir and partly delivered to the Sangachal terminal via the same 28” subsea pipeline for further hand over to the national grid system. Gas injection activities currently continue from six wells on CA.
Most of the associated gas from West Chirag has been exported to the Sangachal terminal. The commissioning of the gas conditioning and compression systems on West Chirag has been completed and the systems have been fully handed over to operations allowing full export of West Chirag gas to the terminal.
Most of the associated gas produced from the Chirag platform continued to be sent to the SOCAR compression station at the Oil Rocks via the existing 16” subsea gas pipeline. BP has completed its planned work on the flash gas compressors and pipelines which has allowed us to significantly reduce flaring on Chirag.
During the first three quarters of 2014, BP delivered 7.3 million cubic metres (257.8 million standard cubic feet) per day of ACG associated gas to SOCAR (2 billion cubic metres or about 70.4 billion cubic feet in total).
